postheadericon Tomatoes planted in final positions

I've managed to get my 10 cedrico tomatoes all planted up in there grow bags inside the main tunnel. Another 20 or so tomatoes will be planted up later in one of the other tunnels when we find time to prepare it.

As you can see we are using grow bags with two tomatoes planted in each with a 5 inch watering hole in the middle. The tomatoes are actually planted in the bag in there final pot (5litre) with the bottom cut off to give just a bit of extra depth, use florist buckets if you have them. All the watering is entirely done via the 5inch pot sunk into the middle of the grow bag. The tomatoes need regular checking, tying, side shoots removed and feeding once a week once the first sign of tomatoes start to form.

I have to say these tomatoes are flying under the conditions they have been given and i only hope they don't come to early.
